Half-Life 2 – Fan Movie Teaser I’m the Freeman

Marco Spitoni works at WETA (the company who produce props, visual effects and other hardware for Lord of the Rings) and made this awesome teaser trailer for a Half-Life movie that no one’s ever gonna see completed… probably.

Possibly the most awesome combine(ation) of CGI, Machinima and live action anywhere, this movie and it’s sequel are fricking brilliant.

Both parts are made in a gritty guerrilla style that really works in the context. Budget is low ($250 on each) with previously owned/donated software, time, and an HVX200 camera used.

Both parts star Julia Tourianski and Derek Chan with producers David and Ian Purchase.
